Comment: Over the years I have had to take this ever now and then due to combination of Urinary and Prostate infection. So far it has worked great at my age of 68 and has for years past.I can tell when my problem is coming on and I start to take the med's and so far it has cleared it up with no side effects.

Comment: I am on my fourth day of taking Cipro. My doctor prescribed it for a UTI. The first two days were okay, but starting on the third day, the side effects became worse.

Comment:I am on my fourth day of taking Cipro. My doctor prescribed it for a UTI. The first two days were okay, but starting on the third day, the side effects became worse. I was somewhat weak the first couple of days, but after that I have lived in a "Fog"!! I feel very lightheaded, and have minor, but irritating headaches. I dread taking it in the morning because I know that my day is going to be like a blur. Evenings are better, but then, I have to take it again! You would think they could manufacture a medication that would not have such aggravating and uncomfortable side effects.Hide Full Comment
